Descrizione

We will tour the famous sights and learn about the culture, and personalities, who shaped the world. We will also discover more hidden places that tourists (and many locals) don’t know about.
I am new to Get Your Guide, but have been a tour guide in Oxford for the past 5 years and have many 5 star reviews on a different website. Oxford’s city centre has, within a relatively small area, hundreds of years of history which we will be experiencing by walking for a couple of hours.
We will tour the famous sights and learn about the culture, reasons and history behind what we see. We will hear about the famous Oxford personalities, who shaped the world and learn about their world. We will also discover more hidden places, the ones tourists (and many locals) don’t know about.
I will point out the locations of world famous films and the stunning hidden architecture.
This is a tour for very small groups as I want you to feel comfortable and able to ask questions. If there is any particular requirement, just ask and I will do my best to accommodate you.
We will meet outside the Randolph Hotel, on Beaumont Street, opposite the Ashmolean Museum and start our adventure from there.
We will talk about the history that shaped this amazing city and most of the Western world. Admire the Ashmolean, Martyrs' memorial, Saxon Tower, St Michael at the North Gate. We will step back in time and learn about the Castle and Prison. Be transported back to times when Carfax was part of a church and the Covered Market was opened. We will admire Radcliffe Square with its Camera, St Mary the Virgin and Bodleian Library. And of course we will visit Hertford Bridge, the Turf Tavern, see the City Walls, Bath Place, Clarendon Building, Sheldonian Theatre, Blackwells and many other amazing sights and will finish very near the starting point.
